Chapter 691 Three days and three nights (seven)
Li Ling was captured and placed under house arrest, and his future was worrying, but compared to the other people in Desheng Town, he was too much stronger. At least he was safe for the time being, with food and drink, and his injuries were also treated in time, but the soldiers of Dayue who also fell into the opponent were suffering.
Whether they were injured or not, they were tied into a string by ropes, and then surrounded by Gui Rong soldiers who had snatched the crossbow. As long as they had any abnormal movements, they would be greeted by a burst of arrows. In this way, before noon, twenty or thirty people died. They either died due to their worsening injuries or were killed by Gui Rong people on the spot, and they were really dying with their eyes closed.
As for those people, they were driven out at this time, working hard, or serving the Guirong people to cook and wrap their wounds, or repairing the fortifications outside the town, there were Guirong people holding swords and bows staring at them. As long as they showed a little abnormality, they would be the same as killing.
Although the number of people in the town at this time was two or three times that of Guirong people, after seeing the corpses and blood on the ground, these ordinary people dared not resist at all. They could only obey orders. They really were the ones who were the fish and meat people.
After noon, the leaders of Guirong suddenly remembered that they would have to transport food and supplies to leave, so they asked the people to repair the damaged vehicles, but they did not leave them idle anyway. As for the problem of insufficient wood in the town, they quickly gave a solution. With just a wave of their hands, they selected hundreds of people to go to the forest behind the town to cut down trees, but only three people were sent to follow them.
But this was enough. Under the threat of their bows and arrows, the hundreds of people did not dare to escape at all. They could only work hard to cut down the forest according to their wishes, and then slowly sent the wood to the town. This time, not only was it enough to repair vehicles, but the town's fortifications were much stronger.
In this busy and busy life, time slowly passed, and the sun had deflected westward, which meant that the night was coming. However, during this period, the main force of Guirong had been fully rested and had recovered its combat power. Therefore, when Hetura gathered the leaders and proposed his own strategy, it immediately received the approval of many people.
Now, after nightfall, we will launch a new round of attacks on the Vietnamese army not far ahead.
However, the situation there was indeed quite strange. The whole day, the Vietnamese army was quiet, and there was no one to check it out, nor did they want to retreat. I don’t know what they were thinking.
Soon, it was dark again and it was time to go on.
After a whole day of rest, Li Ling's physical and mental health have been restored to a certain extent. He was only suffering from his lack of strength, so he could only be trapped in this small house with a grievance and anxiety, and was worried about the generals not far away. However, he is now in prison, let alone warning Chen Daoshou and the others, but he can't even save himself.
Just as he was thinking about whether he should take a gamble and sneaked out while the night was falling, he suddenly heard a gentle click from the back window. This made him shake suddenly. He hurriedly looked back and saw that the window was opened, and a man had already flipped in very neatly.
Li Ling thought it was Li Moyun who escaped because he thought that he was the one who could do this in the town now - he said that since he was taken down by Gui Rongren, he had never seen the other party again, but he absolutely believed that Li Moyun would definitely not be in trouble.
But when he looked carefully, he was surprised to find that the person who came was Yang Zhen wearing ordinary men's clothes. Although his face was deliberately covered with mud, Li Ling still recognized his identity at a glance. At the same time, he was even more happy and immediately lowered his voice: "You...why are you here?"
Yang Zhen looked at the inside of the house alertly, glanced at the closed door, and was sure that it was temporarily safe, and whispered: "Bizhi is naturally here to save the adults and leave here. Not long ago, I squirted into the town."
But before the battle last night began, the Yang brothers left the team as they had previously agreed to, and wanted to go to a nearby state city for help. As long as reinforcements were drawn, the battle with Gui Rong could end smoothly.
But unexpectedly, they had not run far away, and there was a change on the battlefield. The border army was trapped, but instead let the enemy break into their own town. The first reaction of the Yang brothers who saw this scene from afar was to turn back to rescue, but after running back, Yang Chen finally realized that the situation was hopeless, so he decisively changed his mind and sneaked into the town and waited for an opportunity to move.
As a result, this afternoon, the opportunity finally made them wait, because the hundred civil servants left the town and entered the forest to cut down trees, but only three people were watching. This allowed them to calmly mingle into the crowd and then return to the town as civil servants.
Of course, this is not enough. Their ultimate goal is to rescue Li Ling. Fortunately, after a careful investigation, they found the place where Li Ling was imprisoned. At this time, taking advantage of the cover of the night, they approached from the rear. After eliminating the two Gui Rong soldiers guarding behind, they met their own master.
"Sir, you leave here with us. With our brothers here, you will be able to safely bring you back to the army." Yang Zhen said, and had already used his knife to help Li Ling break the rope on his hands and feet, then half-held him, then flipped out from the window, met with Yang Chen who was looking out from outside, and then quietly touched out.
Although Li Ling was uneasy about Li Moyun's safety, he knew that it was not a time to act voluntarily, so he didn't say much, tried his best to keep up with the two of them, and with the cover of the night, he leaned towards the corner little by little. Although the defense around the town was stronger than before, there were still flaws in the corners, which was enough for the three of them to escape easily.
Seeing that the three of them were about to reach the corner and could leave the town, suddenly, a shout sounded in the town, and then torches suddenly lit up, and in an instant, the town was illuminated like daytime. This was beyond the expectations of the Yang brothers. In a daze, they saw that someone behind had discovered their whereabouts and rushed forward.
"How could this happen?" Yang Zhen was anxious and roared angrily, then said decisively: "Brother, please protect the sir and leave first, I'll block them!"
Yang Chen did not hesitate, immediately responded, grabbed Li Ling's hand and rushed forward quickly. Li Ling could only try his best to follow, but was already staggering by this pull, and almost fell down several times. Fortunately, the other party helped him up in time to barely maintain his body.
After snatching more than ten steps, they finally rushed out of the town. Then Yang Chen accelerated again, pulled Li Ling and suddenly turned around and rushed straight to the forest there. There was exactly where they had been hiding for half a day before, and they were already familiar with the terrain, which was enough to hide again.
At the same time, there were already jingling fighting sounds from behind, and then several screams rang out in succession. Li Ling didn't have to look back and knew that it was Yang Zhen who had sex with the other party's pursuers, and he could still block the pursuers for the time being. But I don't know how long this situation can last, and whether he can escape unstoppable.
In the town, Hetura was extremely angry. Everything was already arranged, and he just waited for him to take Li Ling, a key figure, to attack the Vietnamese position. However, he pushed the door open and saw an empty room. The prisoner was gone, and only the back window was open, as if he was mocking his stupidity.
This annoyed him, so he decisively ordered everyone to search for Li Ling's whereabouts. Then he saw the three people fleeing to the corner of the town and about to escape.
The last step of his wishful thinking actually made such a mistake, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Hertulai. At this moment, he didn't even bother to plan the whole plan and just wanted to capture Li Ling first. At that time, he might even break his legs and think that he would punish him.
But he obviously forgot that there were not only soldiers from Guirong tribes in Desheng Town. The troubles caused the people to panic and screamed for a while. Many people from Dayue, who had been panic, also jumped up and ran around, causing chaos in the town.
During this chaos, many Guirong soldiers' actions were blocked. The teams that were about to gather were actually washed away. In anger, these people simply drew their swords and slashed, causing dozens or hundreds of innocent people to be killed. The screams of the people of the people made more people feel panicked and their mentality collapsed. The people of Dayue, who had not had much courage to resist, mustered up the little courage and began to pounce on the foreign tribes who were waving scimitars nearby, wielding scimitars and terrifyingly.
If Li Ling and the others were still in the town at this time, they could stand with the people and shout, they might be able to gather a force that could fight Gui Rong to the end. After all, these people were young and strong men, and they only lacked courage and rules. In such a messy scene, the cavalry tactics that Gui Rong people were best at would be useless, and the people had an absolute advantage in numbers.
However, at this time, he had already left the town and could only watch the town in chaos, but was soon suppressed by the cruel killing of Guirong people. The people of Dayue who were fighting each other were not even considered a loose sand in front of the enemy who showed their butcher's knife. They were just a dish.
It was not until the chaos was suppressed that Hetulai breathed a little relieved, and at the same time he felt even more glad: "Fortunately, the Vietnamese troops did not take this opportunity to fight, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable..."
However, before he could breathe all his breath, there was a stirring sound coming from the front. After a while, the sound approached and became louder.
At first, everyone thought that the Vietnamese army was really taking advantage of the chaos to attack and kill, but then they listened and looked again and realized that this was not the case.
